The average speed of the horse is 2.5 m/s

The average speed of the horse can be calculated using the formula below.

Speed:

This can be defined as the ratio of distance to time. the S.I unit is m/s.

Formula:

  • S = d/t.................... Equation 1

Where:

  • S = average speed of the horse
  • d = distance covered by the horse
  • t = time taken to cover the distance

From the question,

Given:

  • d = 800 meter
  • t = 320 seconds.

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • S = 800/320
  • S = 2.5 m/s

Hence, The average speed of the horse is 2.5 m/s
